President Bola Tinubu on Sunday strongly condemned the bomb attacks, which resulted in the loss of precious lives and the maiming of other citizens in the Gwoza Local Government Area of Borno State.
Death toll in the terrorists attack in Gwoza reached 18 on Sunday, with many still injured after bombs were etonated by terrorists.
Tinubu, in a statement described the attacks as desperate acts of terror and a clear manifestation of the pressure mounted against terrorists and the success achieved in degrading their capacity to launch offensives.
The President declared that the purveyors of wanton violence shall have a certain encounter with justice, and that these cowardly attacks were only but an isolated episode as his government would not allow the nation to slither into an era of fear, tears, sorrow, and blood.
The President stated that his administration was taking necessary measures to secure citizens, emphasising that efforts would be redoubled to ensure that those who trouble the nation, dispatching precious lives, and disrupting law and order were completely removed.
Tinubu condoled with the victims of the attacks, the families of the deceased, as well as the government and people of Borno State.
